The Beauty of You
The Beauty Of You
As rare as a butterfly in the snow
Or maybe a weed that will not grow
Perhaps a candle light in the rain
Perchance a baby born without any pain
The unlikely chance of a rainbow
On a bright sunshiny day all aglow
All these things I find rare and true
When I think of the beauty of you
Fancy a morning glory so bright
Blooming in the middle of the night
Or the unlikelihood of leaves turning green
In the middle of a cold winter scene
A child without any candy on hand
Can you picture a beach without any sand
All these things I find rare and true
When I think of the beauty of you
Can you imagine a horse that didn't run
Or a circus where there was no fun
Ever seen a wedding with no tears
Or a soldier gone to war with no fear
No list of rarities would be complete
And it sure would not be half as sweet
Nor would it be half as rare and true
If it did not include the beauty of you
